Synthesis of 1,1-Bis(seleno)-2-alkenes

The success of the direct conversion of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds into the corresponding diselenoacetals by means of selenol/zinc chloride or tris(seleno)borane greatly depends on the starting carbonyl derivative.Enals and cyclic enones are transformed most efficiently, whereas acyclic enones mainly produce 1,4-addition compounds.

REGIO- AND STEREOCHEMISTRY OF THE ZnCl2 MEDIATED CONVERSION OF 3-HYDROXYVINYL SELENIDES INTO 1,3-BIS(SELENO)-PROPENES

The title process extends the scope of a recently reported reaction, gives general access to the largely unknown 1,3-bis(seleno)-propenes and reveals interesting aspects of allylic nucleophilic substitution.
